Name the Mascot

So it came to my attention that our mascot is currently without a name. So, I thought this would be a good chance to try and come up with a name while we were all out at dinner during Anime Expo. However, we had to leave before a decision was reached. As such, I thought I’d open the floor to the rest of you as well! After our discussion at dinner, the strongest suggestions seem to have been “Mami” from one of encubed’s members, and “Sachiko” from CIRCUS’s members.

There were of course more than enough joking suggestions such as “Hideko” (after Baka Test’s Hideyoshi), “Uguu” from a certain Key fan, and “Hajime Nugu” (First Strip) from OVERDRIVE’s Bamboo.

So, for those who have more suggestions, or support any of the ones made so far, let us know! Maybe your idea will become her name!

How about Keiko? It means “adored one” and it is similar to Keima, the galge-obsessed protagonist of the manga The World God Only Knows. It’s a great manga about Keima having to use galge strategies on real girls. I also think the name suits her.

Seeing as to how the mascot is suppose to be Japanese, was created by a Japanese artist for the sake of promoting Japanese products for a company that’s predominately run by Japanese people, clearly the idea of giving her a Japanese name is just a completely unreasonable proposition…

I kind of like the MG-tan “name”. The mascot also kind of reminds me of the OS-tan mascots. Anyway just add a “-tan” at the end of her name and it’ll be fine as a mascot name.
So I would say MG-tan or MangaGamer-tan.
